Positano is about thirty minutes away from Amalfi by ferry. Embarking at 1030, we had the choice of return times, we chose to come back at 1530, so five hours to kill.
Positano is much like Amalfi except that the alley ways are the only way to get around as the main road only goes through the Town and is not a shopping thoroughfare. The difference here is that there are a number of Art Galleries and jewellry sellers - more than Amalfi. The buildings in the Town were much brighter than Amalfi - the painters must come round more often in Positano.
The beach is much larger and more established, and cost 12.50 euros a day to visit. Here we did find some clothing to buy - tee shirt for me and a top for Doreen; prices higher than normal but it appears to be top quality and worth it. Walking along the 
beach alley, which wound upward we came across a restaurant hanging on the cliff - stopped in had a Calzone Pizza and beverages - good food and good prices.

Returning on a smaller ferry, it is easy to see why ferry accidents can kill so many - every seat on this boat was taken, but sitting outside was not uncomfortable or cold, a very pleasant return journey. Takeaway was supper this night.
